I did a status match with Virgin a few years ago during Covid and managed to bump along with Gold until this current year where I've been soft landed back to Silver.

I took up the Hilton Gold partner offer when they matched me.

I have an option to requalify for VA Gold before the 30 Sept changes. If I go from Silver to Gold will I get another Hilton Gold?

The website says "This benefit is only available once and is valid for one year."

I'm thinking NO but just asking in case someone knows a workaround.

Unfortunately, no.

You do get a match for each VA Gold and VA Platinum however. I used the HH Diamond SM years ago and got to fire off the Gold version just before soft landing to Silver.

I got back to Gold (from Red) and the Hotel offer is showing unavailable.

Some here who have been long term VA WP/SG have been successful in requesting a second go.
